Single Source Provider for Layered Solutions

The Florida School for the Deaf and the Blind (FSDB) is seeking a single source provider for proprietary software and licensing agreements from Layered Solutions for the support of FSDB's mass notification system for the 2022-2023 fiscal year. The estimated not-to-exceed dollar amount for this procurement is $80,000. Layered Solutions is the sole manufacturer and support provider of the software and mass notification system that has been fully integrated into FSDB's operations. As the sole provider of the proprietary software and preconfigured hardware devices, Layered Solutions is the only source for this requirement. FSDB has determined that Layered Solutions is the sole source for the proprietary software and mass notification system currently in use, and no other sources exist for the required software and system components.

This is a single-source procurement, and FSDB will consider any information from potential vendors regarding their ability to provide the required commodities or services during the 15-business day advertising period. There are no set-aside designations or restrictions on the types of organizations that can respond. Layered Solutions is the incumbent vendor and the current contractor providing the mass notification system to FSDB. The procurement does not indicate any existing infrastructure or technology that requires integration beyond Layered Solutions' proprietary offerings.
